Madness : Driving In My Car

[Samdoesntcare77]

This video is madness alright!! :P

[chelsjedaholic]

omg dont even care, i'm 16 and my dad brought me up listening to Madness, now there one of my favourite bands

[dazmin100]

@chelsjedaholic That is child abuse

[turnsout689]

Thumbs up if ur Dad bought u here

[omrespectabil]

This is shit

[Ohaitharimbert]

@omrespectabil lul hi troll trollington

[dazmin100]

@omrespectabil I think you are giving it too much credit, it has a long way to go to achieve shitness, shite is dizzying vertigo for these talentless arse wits

[SatansPetGoose]

I've been on so many madness videos tonight.. they're fucking awesome!

[dazmin100]

Can anyone who likes the twattty boys please explain to me why a man with no voice leading a bunch of journey man musicians writing novelty songs are still remembered when similar acts like the wurzels, the baron knights and Joe dolces music theatre have rightly been erased from our embarrassed collective conscience. Now hear me out here, I have no problem with Night boat to Cairo, the Prince but this silly lyrics/naff videos novelty act thing that was the rest of their career..what gives?

[michaelpiper2]

@dazmin100 The Wurzels are still going, just released a christmas album, tosser.

[dazmin100]

@michaelpiper2 and have a better lead singer, listen to this fucking song for christs sake, it is shit, it sounds like a childrens party record, Suggs writes lyrics at a similar level to a slightly retarded chimp, there are people who play with their own shit who find these songs crass and insipid, at least you appear to be admitting to thinking the only difference betweene sadness and the wurzels is that the wurzels are still going.

[michaelpiper2]

@dazmin100 novelty songs are popular, that's why people listen to them.

[Deltronn0]

@dazmin100 Because Baron Knights FUCKING sucks!

'This is the heavy heavy monster sound

The nuttiest sound around'

[dazmin100]

@Deltronn0 I asked "differences" not similarities

[ktmcrazy007]

class from the 80`s!!!!

[imamijausta]

This sound is so irritating :/

[aeronuk1]

I don't think there were ever any car factories by the tyne...

[Styx1x]

Thumbs up if BF3 brought you here

[XypherVG]

@Styx1x Was expecting them to be blown up by a tank after the lines "I'm satisfied I got this far..."

[JB98EFCSAVIOR]

@Styx1x wtf how?

[KronikAlkoholik]

@Styx1x WTF I play Bf3 and listen to Madness but I didn't know there was a link. Is it in the single player campaign? Only played online!

[DigitalExtasyX]

@KronikAlkoholik /watch?v=ASlm8RIAgr4 I think he speaks about that.

[ktmcrazy007]

total class love it

[killerwatt318]

[lukey597]

@zacho6661 Britain

[zacho6661]

[undergroundspencer]

Nice! I never noticed before, but they spell SSENDAM at the end of the video. pure MADNESS!

[pajathetrut]

People!!!We must put an end to this madness!! :D

[EmperorChaos]

3:00

They wear fezzes in this video. Wearing fezzes in videos is cool.

[PJH233]

@EmperorChaos As are bowties.

[EmperorChaos]

@PJH233

I've love to see Suggs on Doctor Who!! :P

[yeitom]

Seventy unlucky haven´t been born!

[eyeboul]

excellent !!

[GMandy62]

They made me laugh and still do!

[thevisionful]

I like the way the ball hits Suggs head while he gets in the motor 'bloke from from brazil' reference to 1982 world cup?

[haividelitie]

LOL! 1:34

[zeldaandtheocarina]

Im glad vh1 still casts 80s songs

[NickInDetroit]

These guys are outstanding. Too bad that they had such limitted exposure in The States, so umfair. Couldn't happen today, with the Net and all...

[Toothpaste364]

70 people don't like driving in their cars

[janniwheeler]

yeah. . real NAZIs! fuck off!



[totesme14]

They have a song about their house, their pants, and now their car. XD

[jessi1971]

@totesme14 Dont forget about their GIRL

[wthstudios]

I just noticed the Funboy Three in this... God do I feel stupid.

[CynthiaSixx]

I want to drive in the Maddiemobile.

[AlexTechTV]

@CynthiaSixx lol me too!

[ennylekalb]

It's like the wiggles for adults

[CONNORONBASS]

70 people crashed their car XD

[Toothpaste364]

how can any1 not like this? this is my first childhood memory:this song and i absolutely adore it:the sound effects the mad way the instruments fit together in that cool way and of course the lyrics go well.fab song through and through

[baine319]

SSENDAM

[SBSimBrothers]

Communist symbol at 1:32 ? Interesting...

[iLucasCasagrande]

@SBSimBrothers where is the communist symbol?

[SBSimBrothers]

@iLucasCasagrande with the guy with "A" hat, he's holding the tools over his head, it looks like the communist symbol!

[SneakingViper]

@SBSimBrothers He is holding a Hammer and a wrench, the communist symbol is a hammer and a sickle. Also Europe do not have the fear for communism as some american countries do, so its okay to show symbols like that, well it was in the 80's anyway.

[SBSimBrothers]

@SneakingViper Yes, I know it's not a real communist symbol, but looks like! Don't know if the original idea was that, but I can't look for this and think about the communist symbol! heheh!

[1ronMa1den]

I have to listen to this song every day at work and I fucking hate it. I just wanted to find it on YT just so I can hate on it for-fucking-ever! AHHHHHHH! Bullshit. I hope they change the music cycle at my job soon.

[speedsterzone]

MORRIS!!! Cool!!!

[Swannyboii96]

WOOOO I'M FROM MUSWELL HILL.

I saw Madness live for a suprise for my dad (I felt like the youngest there!) and at one point Suggs was talking about Muswell Hill, I literally got so excited I stood up and screamed... never got so many dirty looks in my life.

[dannydoabit]

was not even born ................



[thewabbiteer]

Going through the video - seeing the lads crammed in to a car driving on the London roads - Nowadays there would be hell to pay for lack of Health and Safety, ah well if they fell out I suppose that would be inspiration for another song. 80's were mad yes, but the 10's are TOTALLY CRAP!

[target42100]

i would like to dedicate this song to my friend lucy who is going to work at a car dealership.

[warriorskilledcyrus]

I just noticed that the 3 hitch-hikers they ignore, are the Fun Boy Three (or if you prefer, Terry Hall, Lynval Golding, and Neville Staple - all formerly of The Specials, aka The Coventry Automatics) and , who are indeed from Coventry.

[futurecat71]

Madness were good up to 1982 then they started to release crap records like this one and wings of a dove.

[azkanan]

The first song I play whilst on my first drive on my first motorway, was going to be Guns'n'Roses or Frank Sinatra... but...

I'm English. I can't resist these guys. What can I say?

[garnyan]

Yep in the 80s are time the video to tracks where simple,made sense and had no shit effects attached,

[dalekbitch]

At 3:00,  The doctor would be proud!

[Demonsword92]

@dalekbitch because fez's are cool ;)

[mwstudios11]

@dalekbitch lotsa fezzes! fezzes are COOL!

[calzo101]

@dalekbitch AAAGGHH :( I dont get it

[dalekbitch]

@calzo101 Doctor who, british sci-fi show. I cant really explain, other than a quote from series 5.

''I wear a fez now, fezzes are cool.''

[calzo101]

@dalekbitch Yeah i know the show but i didn't know the quote

[0x0darkangel]

whenever i go out in the car with my mum i hum this to myself the whole trip.... cause im cool like that

[MrAndyTu]

After all these years I've only just noticed Fun Boy Three at 1.50. :)

[MadnotMad79]

It says Morris on the door...... :)

[HSTCalvin]

SSENDAM

[jabrown45100]

[alexhillss]

i loved madness and i have done since i was 7 years old when my dad first played me this song, seem them live twice now and my love for them gets stronger! im 17 and would rather blare madness out my car than new r'n'b shit

[lupo0144]

@alexhillss ...You Sir are a Music lover! First "Cassette" I had bought 4 me was "The Rise and Fall" in 1982. I was 12 and in form 1 in the Comprehensive School..... I have them all on CD and Hard Drive.... You just cant beat great music!!! My 13 year old son loves em as well!

[TheLouisCL]

No I can see it's not a jaguar

[skpanga2]

jajajajajaa 2:16 no se porque siempre me río ^^

[Ritzy87]

[TheMeloFelo]

i wish i was born in the 70's and be a teen for the 80's. but i was born in the 90s -.-

[sugacilic]

HAHAHAHAHAH the british answer for greased lightning. Awesome :)

[QuikWire]

1:50 = the specials :L

[TheNsraptor]

absolutely love this song!

[jigsaw9919]

i heard a cover of this song once, it scared the shit out of me

[NobodyFucksWithJesus]

I can't get enough of these knife and drug times!

THEY'RE MADNESS!

[19SMC96]

im 15 and i think madness are amazing! i also listen to grime/rap and rock btw, but this stuff is well good

[TheScaife123]

i love the puppet and the smoking skeleton great bit of creativeness there suggsy

[Kuuper111]

lol sugs gets aball in the head

[101Clouds]

I have a dance show coming up in the half term :D I'm doing a tap dance 2 this and Pink Cadallac... THE DANCES R AWESOME U ROCK MISS. ALISON! (My tap teacher)

[nceeadn]

0:38 hahahahaha

[100thbombgroup]

One of the best songs of 1982.

[LetsGoSurfing93]

Madness always makes me cringe but i cant help liking the music 

[Gool349]

1:54 can be VERY misinterpretated

[harrifer3000]

@Gool349

Could be, but it's supposed to be The Specials, that's why the sign says Coventry.

[4methyst]

Selsey bill is a shithole.

[ten0nine]

@4methyst How is it I love it down there

[therealsoulproduct]

Great tune! One of my favorites by the nutty boys!

And yes, that's the Fun Boy 3 that the band drove by and heckled. 2-TONE FOREVER!!!!!

[JeffroTV]

MaddenMobile.

[TheAarontheblackmage]

ahhh the 1980's. that strange time when music videos were entertaining to watch. i wish id been born back then. sadly i was born in the 90's.

[JANELOVESYOURARSE]

@TheAarontheblackmage i am also a 90s kid, who wishes to be born in the 60s, they got all the good music! i was lucky though, i grew up with my mum blasting fatboy slim, madness, the velvet underground, zeppelin, etc :D

[Mexica1345]

@TheAarontheblackmage whats wrong with the 90's? it had awesome cartoons!

[wannos27]

@Mexica1345 80's cartoons where alot better... Danger mouse!!!!!!!! Thundercats!!!!!!!! Stingray!!!!! Thunderbirds!!!!!!!! need i say more ;)

[chalfyboy]

@TheAarontheblackmage Yeah but vidoes were hard to come by in the 80s. We only had 3 channels up until 82. MTV didn't come here until 87

[danimayb]

@TheAarontheblackmage I was born in 1980. I was still not quite old enough to fully appreciate Madness first time round so don't worry about it lol At least we got the legacy left behind from these guys and everyone else :)

[ThePhantomdreamer]

@TheAarontheblackmage me too...

[thesunreport]

@TheAarontheblackmage ..to get the best out of the '80's you had to be born around '75 at least....that way you got the full impact!! xD

[FrankHoboMaster]

@TheAarontheblackmage not like you could help it.

[91ayai]

isnt tht terry hall? 1.55

[02murchc]

@91ayai Yeah the specials were briefly in this video

[BassicalyRock]

I love that police man guy =P

[ptaaffe]

Like now, those were tough economic times back then, but it was a great creative time for British music: lots of new bands and sounds. The three campy guys at 1:52 are the group "Fun Boy 3"

[irwellsteam]

in a way, i'm kinda glad there are few bands like madness today. anyone trying to make a song and video like this would fail big time, and also detract from the uniqueness of madness

[efwiz]

Why would you want a Jaguar when you have a Rolls Royce?

[mrhuse38]

@efwiz cause that's not a Rolls Royce it's a fucking morris miner.

[KingRaven101]

This is blasphemy... this is madness!

Madness?... THIS... IS... actually Madness. You were right.

[Learnthethingsido]

WHAT THE FACK O_o

[arkady714]

Reminds me of the '86 Fiesta an old boss gave me as a gift back in '92! He was only going to get maybe 250 quid for it at best. I was just starting out in life so he just signed it over to me. What a right geezer. Drove her till the wheels came off...actually, until the starter burned out. By that time, I was parking on top of a hill and letting her roll down before dropping her into gear to get her started! LOL! It wasn't quite a Jaguar! Cheers. governor!

[TheJellybaby1988]

This song always reminds me of a few scrappers I've had the displeasure of being in, I've always said this song was done for a few certain idiot's I've known and really wish i hadn't, Very funny video tho.....

[Ottoraptor]

pretty Good but madness our house still better :P

[Dristarg]

Is 3:08 taking a rise out of a classic Volkswagen ad? ("Best selling car in Japan").

Also, the brass solos at 1:02 & 2:30 sound a bit like the refrain from "I dreamed a dream".

[ptaaffe]

@Dristarg Yes, you are right, that bit of the video references the old VW ad from 1979

[TheJason011]

1:34 that dummy scares me

[DaizyLizard]

i love how all of there videos are just them having the time of there lives.

[MonnyBags91]

REALLY REALLY NICE I ADORE MADNESSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

[theRWWorld]

Cameo from the Fun Boy Three at 1:59.

[1kissbee]

my most fave MADNESS song

[MultiTrucker10]

madness the only band to keep knocking great tunes 1 after the other how blessed we was to have a great band back then .never will be replaced and never forgotten

[GarabeBang]

fuck the Beatles!

[anonimous8657215]

@GarabeBang WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH..........D­o you have any idea of what a significant statement you have just said?

[PinkButterfly2004]

creepy

[MegaCaveMan14]

morris minor a car the mad newcastle geordie built :D

[chdochido]

I like driving in my car and sing this song!

('58 Morris Minor Convertible)

Madness!

[pethounds]

The boys weren't big fans of this song (which the intro alludes to). Still holds up well though as an intro to Madness' cartoonish period.

[camonaipo]

Maddiemobile? Someone, check the trunk!

[HilaryMG]

Superb!

[Runefist6]

THIS....THIS IS MADNESS!

THIS IS  SPARTA!

[CaitlinD1997]

absolute madness!

[PassedIt100]

I love this song, and my first car was a Morrie! Good days. Madness, you are still mad, but I live in Canada and cant catch a show

[lolBuNNiiEzZ]

they are like the Ok Go of the 80's

[acidhouser1]

Oi!

[lams369]

Never noticed it before but the three guys on the pavement are the band Fun Boy Three.

[ianisme]

@lams369

I hadn't spotted that before either, but I'm sure you are correct. 

[CakeHorses]

i find it funny that all the boys blow raspberries at the two black guys and a gay guy in the video

[allfantasticimages]

@CakeHorses do you like the specials?

[mrkaimarsh]

I'm 13 years old and I love this song! It's funny!

[mynameisciaran1]

@mrkaimarsh i loved it wen i was 9 and im 11 , still love madness

[MrPomdownunder]

Fun song but I'd love to know when Mori Minors were built in a factory by the Tyne I thought they were built at Cowley near Oxford.... As a Geordie I'm a bit offended by their Cockney...Somewhere "up Norf" attitude.... Got that off my chest....

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

These guys were obviously having so much fun, I almost get jealous watching this.

[Adamovicz]

what does "park in a bender means?

[theselector]

@Adamovicz Could mean to park in a curve or curved road ie. where the "bend" is.
